The entire sixteen element scattering matrix for two parallel dielectric fibers over an angular range of θ = 5°-170° as measured from the forward θ = 0 direction has been experimentally measured using the polarization modulation technique. Experimental results were in good agreement with theory for light scattering from two parallel fibers. Measurements were made for both endside and broadside illuminations at normal incidence for fibers at various separations from 2 μm to 70 μm. Laser wavelengths used were 632.8 nm and 441.2 nm, and fiber radii were 0.400±0.002 μm, 0.370±0.002 μm, 0.428±0.002 μm, and 0.406±0.002 μm. Special care was taken to measure the fiber radii, fiber separation, and to establish the parallelism between the two fibers. Electrostatic attraction between the fibers prevented the investigation for separation below 2 μm. A vibration detection device based on two-fiber light scattering has also been suggested.

A system consisting of a sphere sitting on a clean mirror was modeled as a two particle system: the real sphere and its image sphere, treating the mirror as a conducting plane. When the system was irradiated with a plane-polarized collimated laser beam with varying angles of incidence, the scattering from each particle was assumed to follow Mie's solution for light scattering by a sphere. Phase difference between the scattering by the real sphere and the one by its image sphere was assessed by the geometry of the model. The far field solutions from each of the spheres were added to yield a phase dependent intensity function. Another model assumed no phase correlation between the two and the intensities from each spheres were added. Also discussed is the Double Interaction Mode, which takes the mirror-sphere separation into consideration. These theoretical results were converted to Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Functions (BRDF). The theoretical as well as the empirical surface scattering from a good quality optical surface was introduced. The BRDF values thus calculated were added to the background scattering by the mirror since no interaction was assumed between the spheres and the rough metallic surface of the mirror. The test sample was prepared with polystyrene spheres with the nominal diameter of 0.984 μm on a high quality aluminum mirror. The BRDF data from this sample with 6328Å and 4416Å were compared with the one obtained with the model described above. The comparison strongly indicated that there existed no phase correlation between the scatterings by the two spheres. Determination of the sphere size and practical applicability for estimating the sphere number density on the surface are also discussed.

Low observable technology is used in order to prevent detection, or to delay detection. Radar cross section is an important parameter in aircraft survivability since it measures how detectable an object is with radar. To find the radar cross section Maxwell's equations are solved numerically in the time-domain using a finite difference scheme. This numerical method called Finite Difference Time Domain is very suitable for structures including complex materials. However, this numerical method needs to be verified for large scale simulations, due to numerical dispersion errors. Therefore it is desirable to verify the accuracy of the numerical simulations. In this project, the analytical solution to the multiple scattering by two spheres is implemented using the T-matrix formulation. The analytical solution to the scattering problem is first validated with the analytical Mie-series solution then compared to the Finite Difference Time Domain implementation. The results imply that the difference between the numerical and analytical solution is larger for higher frequencies and larger computational volumes.Smygteknik används för att förhindra detektering, eller för att fördröja detektion av ett flygplan. Radarmålarea är en viktig parameter för skyddsprestanda hos flygplan eftersom den mäter hur detekterbar ett föremål är med radar. För att hitta radarmålarean löses Maxwells ekvationer numeriskt i tidsdomänen med hjälp av ett finit differensschema. Den numeriska metoden som kallas Finita differensmetoden i tidsdomän, är mycket lämplig för strukturer med komplexa material. Den numeriska metoden behöver valideras för storskaliga simuleringar eftersom det förekommer felaktigheter på grund av den numeriska dispersionen. Därför är det önskvärt att kontrollera riktigheten av de numeriska simuleringarna. I detta projekt, är den analytiska lösningen till multipelspridning av två sfärer implementerad med hjälp av T-matrismetoden. Den analytiska lösningen på spridningsproblemet valideras först mot den analytiska Mie-serielösningen och sedan jämförs den med resultatet av simuleringarna med Finita differensmetoden i tidsdomän. Resultaten antyder att skillnaden mellan den numeriska och analytiska lösningen är större för högre frekvenser och större beräkningsvolymer.

Les structures photoniques complexes permettent de façonner la propagation lumineuse à l’échelle de la longueur d’onde au moyen de processus de diffusion et d’interférence. Cette fonctionnalité à l’échelle nanoscopique ouvre la voie à de multiples applications, allant des communications optiques aux biosenseurs. Cette thèse porte principalement sur la modélisation numérique de structures photoniques complexes constituées d’arrangements bidimensionnels de cylindres diélectriques. Deux applications sont privilégiées, soit la conception de dispositifs basés sur des cristaux photoniques pour la manipulation de faisceaux, de même que la réalisation de sources lasers compactes basées sur des molécules photoniques. Ces structures optiques peuvent être analysées au moyen de la théorie de Lorenz-Mie généralisée, une méthode numérique permettant d’exploiter la symétrie cylindrique des diffuseurs sous-jacents. Cette dissertation débute par une description de la théorie de Lorenz-Mie généralisée, obtenue des équations de Maxwell de l’électromagnétisme. D’autres outils théoriques utiles sont également présentés, soit une nouvelle formulation des équations de Maxwell-Bloch pour la modélisation de milieux actifs appelée SALT (steady state ab initio laser theory). Une description sommaire des algorithmes d’optimisation dits métaheuristiques conclut le matériel introductif de la thèse. Nous présentons ensuite la conception et l’optimisation de dispositifs intégrés permettant la génération de faisceaux d’amplitude, de phase et de degré de polarisation contrôlés. Le problème d’optimisation combinatoire associé est solutionné numériquement au moyen de deux métaheuristiques, l’algorithme génétique et la recherche tabou. Une étude théorique des propriétés de micro-lasers basés sur des molécules photoniques – constituées d’un arrangement simple de cylindres actifs – est finalement présentée. En combinant la théorie de Lorenz-Mie et SALT, nous démontrons que les propriétés physiques de ces lasers, plus spécifiquement leur seuil, leur spectre et leur profil d’émission, peuvent être affectés de façon nontriviale par les paramètres du milieu actif sous-jacent. Cette conclusion est hors d’atteinte de l’approche établie qui consiste à calculer les étatsméta-stables de l’équation de Helmholtz et leur facteur de qualité. Une perspective sur la modélisation de milieux photoniques désordonnés conclut cette dissertation.Complex photonic media mold the flow of light at the wavelength scale using multiple scattering and interference effects. This functionality at the nano-scale level paves the way for various applications, ranging from optical communications to biosensing. This thesis is mainly concerned with the numerical modeling of photonic complexes based on twodimensional arrays of cylindrical scatterers. Two applications are considered, namely the use of photonic-crystal-like devices for the design of integrated beam shaping elements, as well as active photonic molecules for the realization of compact laser sources. These photonic structures can be readily analyzed using the 2D Generalized Lorenz-Mie theory (2D-GLMT), a numerical scheme which exploits the symmetry of the underlying cylindrical structures. We begin this thesis by presenting the electromagnetic theory behind 2D-GLMT.Other useful frameworks are also presented, including a recently formulated stationary version of theMaxwell-Bloch equations called steady-state ab initio laser theory (SALT).Metaheuristics, optimization algorithms based on empirical rules for exploring large solution spaces, are also discussed. After laying down the theoretical content, we proceed to the design and optimization of beam shaping devices based on engineered photonic-crystal-like structures. The combinatorial optimization problem associated to beam shaping is tackled using the genetic algorithm (GA) as well as tabu search (TS). Our results show the possibility to design integrated beam shapers tailored for the control of the amplitude, phase and polarization profile of the output beam. A theoretical and numerical study of the lasing characteristics of photonic molecules – composed of a few coupled optically active cylinders – is also presented. Using a combination of 2D-GLMT and SALT, it is shown that the physical properties of photonic molecule lasers, specifically their threshold, spectrum and emission profile, can be significantly affected by the underlying gain medium parameters. These findings are out of reach of the established approach of computing the meta-stable states of the Helmholtz equation and their quality factor. This dissertation is concluded with a research outlook concerning themodeling of disordered photonicmedia.

The work herein details an optical droplet measurement system based on planar multi-angle Mie scattering. Sizing information consists of a mean droplet diameter and droplet distribution estimates for every individual point within a planar (2D) area of interest. The planar method makes possible the fast acquisition of data within a large field of interest, and uses relatively inexpensive instrumentation.
As presented, the method demonstrated the ability to measure water droplets from a typical simplex spray nozzle, across the range of 5-50 micrometers within +/-10% of known values, and in addition return an estimate of the shape and width of the size distribution at each location within the planar region of interest. Measurements demonstrating the agreement between results from this current method and known PDA data were successfully completed for a 1-gallon-per-hour spray nozzle, and repeatability was demonstrated in 2.5-gallon-per-hour and 4.5-gallon-per-hour nozzles. Additionally the limits of the technique are explored with simulated data. Conclusions from these exercises show that the multi-angle planar Mie scattering method is capable of measuring droplet distribution characteristics and means within a nominal range of 0.3 micrometers up to 150 micrometers.Ph.

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has shown potential to quickly and non-destructively measure the chemical signatures of biomedical samples such as single biological cells, and tissue from biopsy. The size of a single cell (diameter ~10-50 µm) are of a similar magnitude to the mid-IR wavelengths of light (~1-10 µm) giving rise to Mie-type scattering. The result of this scattering is that chemical information is significantly distorted in the IR spectrum.Distortions in biomedical IR spectra are often observed as a broad oscillating baseline on which the absorbance spectrum is superimposed. A spectral feature commonly observed is the sharp decrease in intensity at approximately 1700 cm-1, next to the Amide I band (~1655 cm-1), which pre-2009 was called the 'dispersion artefact'. The first contributing factor towards the 'dispersion artefact' investigated was the reflection signal arising from the air to sample interface entering the collection optics during transflection experiments. This was theoretically modelled, and then experimentally verified. It was shown that IR mapping could be done using reflection mode, yielding information from the optically dense nucleus which previously caused extinction of light in transmission mode.The most important contribution to the spectral distortions was due to resonant Mie scattering (RMieS) which occurs when the scattering particle is strongly absorbing such as biomedical samples. RMieS was shown to explain both the baselines in IR spectra, and the 'dispersion artefact' and was validated using a model system of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) of varying sizes from 5 to 15 µm. Theoretical simulations and experimental data had an excellent match thus proving the theory proposed. With an understanding of the physics/mathematics of the spectral distortions, a correction algorithm was written, the RMieS extended multiplicative signal correction (RMieS-EMSC). This algorithm modelled the measured spectrum as superposition of a first guess (the reference spectrum) which was of a similar biochemical composition to the pure absorbance spectrum of the sample, and a scattering curve. The scattering curve was estimated as the linear combination of a database of a large number of scattering curves covering a range of feasible physical parameters. Simulated and measured data verified that the RMieS-EMSC increased IR spectral quality.

Remote sensing is the collection of information about an object from a distance without physically being in contact with it. The type of remote sensing of interest here is in the form of digital images of water bodies acquired by satellite. The advantage over traditional sampling techniques is that data can be gathered quickly over large ranges, and be available for immediate analysis. Remote sensing is a powerful technique for the monitoring of water bodies. To interpret the remotely sensed data, however, knowledge of the optical properties of the water constituents is needed. One of the most important of these is the volume scattering function, which describes the angular distribution of light scattered by a sample. This thesis presents the first measurements of volume scattering functions for Australian waters. Measurements were made on around 40 different samples taken from several locations in the Gippsland lakes and the Great Barrier Reef. The measurements were made by modifying an existing static light scattering spectrometer in order to accurately measure the volume scattering functions. The development of the apparatus, its calibration and automation, and the application of a complex series of post-acquisition data corrections, are all discussed. In order to extrapolate the data over the full angular range, the data was analysed using theoretical curves calculated for multi-modal size distributions using Mie light scattering theory applied to each data set. From the Mie fits the scattering and backscattering coefficients were calculated. These were compared with scattering coefficients measured using in situ sensors ac-9 and Hydroscat-6, and with values from the literature. The effect of chlorophyll a concentrations on the scattering coefficients was examined, and a brief investigation of the polarisation properties of the samples was also undertaken. Finally the angular effects on the relationship between the backscattering coefficient and the volume scattering function were investigated. This is important as in situ backscattering sensors often assume that measuring at a single fixed-angle is a good approximation for calculating the backscattering coefficient. This assumption is tested, and the optimal measurement angle determined.

Sensing in scattering environments, such as fog and dust, poses a serious challenge for all optical systems and is important for many critical surveillance applications. The use of polarized light, specifically circularly polarized light, has shown great promise for improving detection range and sensing in highly scattering, real-world environments. While the potential impact to application is significant, the optical science and sensing community lacks data on broad wavelength and environmental parameters where circularly polarized light outperforms linearly polarized light, increasing detection range and signal persistence. In this dissertation I quantify, through simulation and experimental results, the advantage of circularly polarized light in laboratory and real-world scattering environments - focusing on circularly polarized light's superior persistence in these environments. I present new and unique contributions to the study of polarized light in both isotropic (Rayleigh regime) and forward-scattering environments, showing circular polarization's superior persistence increases detection range for real-world environments over broad wavelength and particle size regimes. Utilizing polarization-tracking Monte Carlo simulations for varying particle size, wavelength, and refractive index, I quantify when circular polarization outperforms linear polarization in maintaining the illuminating polarization state for large optical thicknesses, persisting to longer ranges. I identify many real-world environments with particle sizes of radiation fog, advection fog, and Sahara dust where circular polarization outperforms linear polarization over broad wavelength ranges in the infrared spectrum. This enhancement with circular polarization can be exploited to improve sensing range and target detection in obscurant environments that are important in many critical surveillance applications. Conversely, I also identify a few environmental configurations where linear polarization outperforms circular polarization. However, circular polarization's response is generally larger and over broader wavelength ranges in the infrared regime for real-world scattering environments. Experiments were conducted for both 1) isotopically-scattering (Rayleigh regime) environments and 2) forward-scattering environments using polystyrene microspheres with well-defined diameters. These measurements demonstrated that in the forward-scattering environments, circular polarization persists through increasing optical thickness better than linear polarization. Variations in persistence were investigated as a function of collection geometry, angular field of view, and collection area. Persistence for both linear and circular polarization was found to be more susceptible to collection geometry, specifically increased collection area, in the isotropically-scattering (Rayleigh regime) environment. Similarly, linear polarization in the forward-scattering environments is dependent upon changes in collection geometry. Significantly, circular polarization's response is nearly unaffected by variations of both field of view and collection area for the forward-scattering environments. Circular polarization proves to be not only generally better in persistence but also more tolerant of variations in angular collection and collection area compared to linear polarization, making it ideal and flexible for use in optical sensing systems in scattering environments. Finally, I present simulation results that show the evolution of linear and circularly polarized light as it scatters throughout both isotropic (Rayleigh regime) and forward-scattering environments as a function of scattering event. Circularly polarized light persists through a larger number of scattering events longer than linearly polarized light for all forward-scattering environments; but not for scattering in the Rayleigh regime. Circular polarization's increased persistence occurs for both forward and backscattered light. The evolution of the polarization states as they propagate through the various environments are illustrated on the Poincaré sphere after successive scattering events. This work displays individual scattering events as well as a cumulative, measureable result, in an intuitive manner. Throughout this dissertation I quantify the polarization persistence and memory of circularly polarized light in real-world scattering environments over broad wavelength, particle size, and collection-geometry parameter spaces; and for the first time, detail the evolution and modification of both circularly and linearly polarized states through isotropic and forward-scattering environments. These results show how circular polarization can extend range and sensing capability in surveillance sensing applications in real-world scattering environments.

The objectives of this study were to implement a system to measure mixing in nonreacting flows and to study the mass transfer characteristics of two actively excited turbulent jets. This thesis describes the acquisition and analysis of phase-locked concentration field data using planar Mie scattering from smoke particles and planar laser-induced fluorescence of acetone. Both techniques were shown to be effective in providing information for the actively excited nozzles. However, the laser-induced fluorescence technique was superior for revealing detail in the flowfield structure.
Spatial mode control techniques were applied to a triangular nozzle with vibrating actuators as the three sides and a swirl nozzle with pulsating tangential air jets. The effect of the different spatial modes on jet column development and the far fields of both nozzles is presented. Two- and three-dimensional iso-intensity contours, showing the relative intensity of light scattered by the nozzle fluid marker, were generated to show the flow structure. The areas inside the iso-intensity contours in the far field were also measured to determine relative effectiveness of nozzle fluid transport.
Large scale structures were visible in the three-dimensional iso-intensity contours from both nozzles. In addition, the transport of seeded nozzle fluid was enhanced by the spatial mode excitation for both nozzles. Spatial mode excitation was also able to affect the shape of the far field contour. In particular, the first counterrotating helical mode, m=±1, generated the greatest effect on nozzle fluid transport and the most pronounced elliptical contour shape in the far field.Master of Science

The aim of the presented work is to investigate the angle-resolved scattering characteristics of biological nano- and micro-scaled cell structures. The scattering results of cellular structures were compared to measurements of ideal spherical nano- and micro-particles. A monolayer of mouse fibroblasts L929 cells was cultivated in a Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) in a standard 24 well cell culture plate. The system allows an in situ measurement directly in the standard cell culture plate and a contaminant-free investigation of the viability of the cell cultures. Of particular interest was whether changes in the tumor characteristics occur in necrosis or other cell-harming effects. Because of the size ratios between wavelength and the scattering particles, all observations were investigated using Mie
scattering theory. A setup for reliable measurements was developed and the scattered angle dependent intensity obtained was compared with simulated scattering characteristics. A homemade supercontinuum (SC) light source was filtered by an optical bandpass filter with a central wavelength of 500 nm. The scattered portion of the pulsed SC light behind the sample was recorded in a time-resolved manner at defined angles. A specimen holder adapted to standard cell culture plates allows detection of scattered radiation at angles between ±80° without angle-dependent Fresnel reflection losses and a Snell’s law bending of the propagation direction. Finally, the system was tested to detect structural changes of mouse fibroblast L929 cells before and after poisoning the cells with the cell detergent Triton X100 and the data clearly shows changes in the scattering characteristics when the cells were destroyed.

This work addresses the problem of rendering clouds. The task of rendering clouds is important to film and video game directors who want to use clouds to further the story or create a specific atmosphere for the audience. While there has been significant progress in this area, other solutions to this problem are inadequate because they focus on speed instead of accuracy, or focus only on a few specific properties of rendered clouds while ignoring others. Another common shortcoming with other methods is that they are not integrated into existing rendering pipelines. We propose a solution to this problem based on creating a point cloud to represent the cloud volume, then calculating light scattering events between the points. The key insight is blending isotropic and anisotropic scattering events to mimic realistic light scattering of anisotropic participating media. Rendered images are visually plausible representations of how light interacts with clouds.

Desde su introducción, los motores de combustión interna alternativos han sido desarrollados con el fin de reducir el consumo y mejorar el rendimiento y facilidad de conducción. Con el tiempo, la contaminación se ha convertido en un factor crítico para los gobiernos y como consecuencia se han introducido regulaciones para reducir las emisiones contaminantes de los motores.
Con el constante progreso tecnológico requerido por las normas contra la contaminación, la inyección directa se ha vuelto indispensable en cuanto a los motores Diesel. La introducción de combustible en la cámara de combustión permite un alto nivel de control sobre la liberación de energía del proceso de combustión. Con las novedosas estrategias de combustión empleadas, el proceso de inyección se ha convertido en el tema principal y el chorro es el factor principal.
El trabajo realizado a lo largo de este estudio para analizar el proceso de mezcla aire-combustible se basa en el desarrollo de técnicas láser de diagnóstico. Inicialmente, la inyección de Diesel se ha estudiado en una atmósfera isoterma para evitar la evaporación del combustible (dodecano) a través del uso de una iluminación estructurada para medir la distribución de la mezcla mediante el control de la dispersión de Mie. La aplicación de la dispersión de Rayleigh en la parte evaporada del chorro inyectado en una cámara a alta temperatura ha permitido la obtención de la distribución de combustible en una situación equivalente a la existente en un motor real.
El análisis y comparación de los distintos parámetros del chorro inyectado en condiciones de baja o alta temperatura da la posibilidad de entender mejor lo que es el proceso de mezcla en los motores Diesel. Por otra parte, según el estado del fluido inyectado, líquido o gaseoso, las condiciones experimentales tendrán diferentes efectos y la mezcla aire-combustible también tendrá un comportamiento distinto.Manin ., JL.

Une crème solaire, ayant pour objectif de filtrer les UV, est un système complexe, à plusieurs phases, contenant deux types de filtres : des filtres dits chimiques - c'est-à-dire des molécules absorbantes - et des réflecteurs (comme le TiO2), protégeant par diffusion de la lumière. Afin d'évaluer l'efficacité des produits, des mesures d'indice de protection (IP ou SPF) existent ; la crème est placée in vivo sur différents phénotypes de peau ou in vitro sur un support plastique en PMMA.Afin de modéliser la protection solaire, nous avons cherché à connaitre la répartition de la crème sur son support. Nous avons pour cela utilisé l'OCT (Tomographie à Cohérence Optique) avec un support plastique métallisé, permettant d'améliorer le contraste des images.Ceci nous a alors permis, en connaissant les paramètres des différents filtres chimiques ou particulaires, de modéliser la transmission de la crème sur son support la peau ou le PMMA. Nous avons pour cela utilisé la méthode différentielle, une méthode de calcul de diffusion de la lumière permettant de traiter une structure bidimensionnelle.Nous avons alors pu comparer nos résultats de calcul avec des mesures de protection, étudier l'influence de quelques caractéristiques des particules comme la taille ou le matériau utilisé, ou bien encore évaluer l'effet de l'hydratation de la couche la plus externe de la peau sur la protection solaire. Nous avons par ailleurs cherché à améliorer la vitesse et le champ d'application des calculs en comparant les résultats obtenus par la méthode différentielle avec d'autres modèles (diffusion de la lumière par des tiges ou théorie de Mie)Sunscreens, an emulsion of several phases, are used as UV filters in order to protect people from sun damages. Filters can be divided in two types: the chemical ones which are organic molecules that absorb selectively ultraviolet light and the physical ones (such as TiO2) which are inorganic particles that scatter and may absorb some of the UV radiation. The sunscreen quality is given by the sun protection factor (SPF), measured in vivo. In order to avoid long and complicated tests, a quick and simple in vitro method, using a plastic substrate, has been established, which gives an approximation of the SPF. In order to model the sunscreen protection, we had to evaluate the sunscreen distribution. We used an OCT (for Optical Coherence Tomography) device, after having spread a metallic thin on the substrate before applying the sunscreen. Theses images helped us to model the cream transmission on the skin or the plastic substrate, using the differential method which can calculate the scattering of light through a 2D structure.We then compared our results to measurements, but also studied the impact of several particles specifications, such as the size or the material of the particle, or study the effect of the skin hydration on the UV protection.Furthermore, we have compared our results to other calculation methods (Mie scattering or scattering by a set of parallel cylinders) in order to improve the calculation time and try a 3D-method

Increased efficiency and reduced emissions from gas turbine (GT) engines are of consistently growing concern for the current gas turbine community and for the political environment. GT engines commonly produce undesirable emissions such as Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Nitric Oxides (NOx), and Unburned Hydrocarbons (UHC), which all pose various threats to the environment. Lean premixed combustion of hydrogen provides a potential solution to these concerns. A key component of successful lean hydrogen combustion is the fuel-air mixer.
A facility and methodology for the evaluation of such a hydrogen-air mixer is developed and discussed in this thesis. The facility developed utilizes three experimental techniques: Mie scattering flow visualization, schlieren flow visualization, and Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) to characterize and evaluate mixer performance. Results from the two flow visualization experiments illustrate the effectiveness of the established facility. The results from the Mie scattering experiment are post processed and overlaid on CFD predictions of mixer performance and many similarities are found. Capability of the LDV to measure two components of mean velocity is also demonstrated.Master of Science

As the planetary climate continues to evolve, it is important to build an accurate long-term climate record. State-of-the-art atmospheric science requires a variety of approaches to the measurement of the atmospheric structure and composition. This thesis supports the possibility of inferring cloud properties from sun photometer observations of the cloud solar aureole using an artificial neural network (ANN). Training of an ANN requires a large number of input and output parameter sets. A cloud radiance model is derived that takes into consideration the cloud depth, the mean size of the cloud water particles, and the cloud liquid water content. The cloud radiance model derived here is capable of considering the wavelength of the incident sunlight and the cloud lateral dimensions as parameters; however, here we consider only one wavelength—550 nm—and one lateral dimension—500 m—to demonstrate its performance. The cloud radiance model is then used to generate solar aureole profiles corresponding to the cloud parameters as they would be observed using a sun photometer. Coefficients representative of the solar aureole profiles may then be used as inputs to a trained ANN to infer the parameters used to generate the profile. This process is demonstrated through examples. A manuscript submitted for possible publication based on an early version of the cloud radiance model was deemed naïve by reviewers, ultimately leading to improvements documented here.Master of Science
The Earth's climate is driven by heat from the sun and the exchange of heat between the Earth and space. The role of clouds is paramount in this process. One aspect of "cloud forcing" is cloud structure and composition. Required measures may be obtained by satellite or surface-based observations. Described here is the creation of a numerical model that calculates the disposition of individual bundles of light within water clouds. The clouds created in the model are all described by the mean size of the cloud water droplets, the amount of water in the cloud, and cloud depth. Changing these factors relative to each other changes the amount of light that traverses the cloud and the angle at which the individual bundles of light leave the cloud as measured using a device called a sun photometer. The measured amount and angle of bundles of light leaving the cloud are used to recover the parameters that characterize the cloud; i.e., the size of the cloud water droplets, the amount of water in the cloud, and the cloud depth. Two versions of the cloud radiance model are described.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Mineral dust aerosol plays an important role in determining the physical and chemical equilibrium of the atmosphere. The radiative balance of the Earth's atmosphere can be affected by mineral dust through both direct and indirect means. Mineral dust can directly scatter or absorb incoming visible solar radiation and outgoing terrestrial IR radiation. Dust particles can also serve as cloud condensation nuclei, thereby increasing albedo, or provide sites for heterogeneous reactions with trace gas species, which are indirect effects. Unfortunately, many of these processes are poorly understood due to incomplete knowledge of the physical and chemical characteristics of the particles including dust concentration and global distribution, as well as aerosol composition, mixing state, and size and shape distributions. Much of the information about mineral dust aerosol loading and spatial distribution is obtained from remote sensing measurements which often rely on measuring the scattering or absorption of light from these particles and are thus subject to errors arising from an incomplete understanding of the scattering processes.
The light scattering properties of several key mineral components of atmospheric dust have been measured at three different wavelengths in the visible. In addition, measurements of the scattering were performed for several authentic mineral dust aerosols, including Saharan sand, diatomaceous earth, Iowa loess soil, and palagonite. These samples include particles that are highly irregular in shape. Using known optical constants along with measured size distributions, simulations of the light scattering process were performed using both Mie and T-Matrix theories. Particle shapes were approximated as a distribution of spheroids for the T-Matrix calculations.
It was found that the theoretical model simulations differed markedly from experimental measurements of the light scattering, particularly near the mid-range and near backscattering angles. In many cases, in the near backward direction, theoretical models predicted scattering intensities for near spherical particles that were up to 3 times higher than the experimentally measured values. It was found that better agreement between simulations and experiments could be obtained for the visible scattering by using a much wider range of more eccentric particle shapes.

Resumo: A morfologia de filmes compósitos preparados com fosfato de alumínio e látexes de poli(metacrilato de metila-co-acrilato de butila) e de poli(estireno-co-acrilato de butila) foi caracterizada por técnicas de microscopia eletrônica de transmissão e de varredura (TEM, SEM) e por técnicas de microscopia de varredura por sonda (AFM, DPFM). O grau de opacidade (razão de contraste) e os cálculos de coeficiente de espalhamento das partículas de fosfato de alumínio nos filmes compósitos foram obtidos através dos espectros de refletância. As micrografias das superfícies de desbaste dos filmes compósitos mostraram espaços vazios entre os agregados de partículas de fosfato de alumínio dispersos pela matriz polimérica. A adesão entre os agregados de partículas de fosfato de alumínio e polímero é muito boa nas interfaces de contato. A refletância dos filmes compósitos varia amplamente, dependendo da concentração das partículas de fosfato de alumínio, assim como da sua forma de uso em pó ou em dispersão e da dimensão dos espaços vazios entre os agregados de partículas. Os resultados das medidas óticas de opacidade mostraram que os filmes compósitos mais opacos foram os obtidos com fosfato de alumínio na forma de pó e com a dimensão dos vazios entre os agregados de partículas na mesma ordem de grandeza que o comprimento de onda da luz na região do visível (400 a 700 nm). Os coeficientes de espalhamento dos filmes de fosfato de alumínio/poli(estireno-co-acrilato de butila) foram calculados empiricamente usando o modelo de Kubelka-Munk e os resultados mostraram que os vazios contidos nos agregados de partículas de fosfato de alumínio justificam a opacidade dos filmes. O filme mais opaco, com razão de contraste de 88 %, apresentou ampla distribuição de dimensão dos vazios com média numérica igual a 650 nm. Além disso, os valores obtidos dos coeficientes de espalhamento experimentais são muito próximos dos coeficientes de espalhamento estimados pela teoria de Mie. A eficiência de espalhamento, predita pela teoria de Mie, de uma bolha de ar rodeada por fosfato de alumínio com diâmetro médio de 650 nm é apenas 12 % menor que a eficiência de espalhamento de uma partícula de dióxido de titânio, no seu diâmetro ótimo de 350 nm, dispersa no mesmo meio
Abstract: Composite films prepared with aluminum phosphate and latex of poly(methyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate) and poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate) were characterized by electronic microscopy (TEM, SEM) and by different techniques of scanning probe microscopy (AFM, DPFM). Opacity (contrast ratio) and light scattering coefficients of composite films were obtained from reflectance spectra. SEM and TEM micrographs from composite films trimmed surfaces or thin cuts showed voids within aluminum phosphate particle aggregates. The adhesion between aluminum phosphate particle aggregates and polymer is very good at contact interfaces. Composite films reflectance changes widely, depending on void diameters, on aluminum phosphate particle concentration, as well as its use in the form of powder or dispersion. Opacity results showed that the most opaque composite films were obtained with aluminum phosphate powder and with void diameters in the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of light in the visible region (400 to 700 nm). Scattering coefficients of aluminum phosphate/poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate) films were calculated empirically using the Kubelka-Munk model and the results showed that the observed voids account for films opacity. The most opaque composite film shows contrast ratio equal to 88 % and a broad distribution of void diameters, peaking at ca. 650 nm. Film scattering coefficient of the observed voids was calculated using Mie theory to evaluate their contribution to film opacity showing that the measured and estimated values are in reasonable agreement. The Mie calculations show that scattering efficiency for air trapped within the phosphate particles dispersed in polymer latex is in excess of 4 units in the 650 nm diameter range, which is only 12 % lower than the calculated values for optimum size TiO2 particles (350 nm) dispersed in the same polymer

Therefore, we employ both Mie and multiple scattering theory as well as a discontinuous Galerkin time-domain method based on finite elements for the numerical computation of the electromagnetic fields. Specifically, we present a theoretical design study for obtaining random spectrometers with high spectral resolution. Furthermore, we provide an alternative strategy to achieve preferentially high backscattering by studying the optical properties of composite nanoparticles. Finally, we present enhanced Faraday rotation along with high transmittance in all-dielectric magneto-optical metasurfaces composed of shape-modified nanodisks.

With the rapid development of the industry all over the world, the consumption of fossil fuel of human activities has reached an extremely high level which result in an incredible dust emission level nowadays. As one of the major environment challenges today, dust pollution has become a vital issue that the human beings have to face and resolve. To tackle the dust pollution problem, a reliable measurement of the dust concentration level is essential. In recent years, methods with different principles are used to detect the dust concentration have been developed. The methods developed based on the scattering principle and the extinction principle for dust concentration measurement have a series of virtues such as high measurement speed, excellent precision and can be useful for real time monitoring. This thesis reviewed the popular theories that are applied in the field which are light scattering (Mie theory) and light extinction (Lambert-beer theory). Matlab simulation is used to verify the possibility of the determined physical quantities related to the concentration measurement in the theory analysis. A new method using the ratio of scattering intensity and extinction intensity is discussed in this thesis providing a more accurate result eliminating the drawbacks of the scattering method and the extinction method.

Patients with pancreatic cancer in metastasis rarely survive, thus the need for diagnostic tools for early stage detection. Current techniques such as ELISA and SPR are complex and expensive and cannot detect cancer in its early stages. Cancer Antigen 242 (CA 242) is a potential protein biomarker of pancreatic cancer with high sensitivity and specificity. This thesis presents a negative Dielectrophoresis (DEP) based method of detecting pancreatic cancer protein biomarker CA 242 in serum. A spectrum of concentration levels was generated with a cut off level 20 U/mL using a transduction mechanism with negative DEP spectroscopy, light scattering, and image processing. This was a fast and cost-effective method to diagnose early stage pancreatic cancer. This thesis also presents the design and simulation of an electrode modified to increase the electric field gradient with reduced heat generation and a concentration prediction model to predict concentrations from the generated spectrum of experiments.

This paper investigated the effects of swirl number and momentum ratio on the atomization and mixing performance of Swirl-Venturi Lean Direct Injection technology. Mie scattering of liquid water, was used to identify the location of water droplets in a cross section of the injector spray. Experiments were performed with three air swirlers with vane angles of 45, 52 and 60 degrees. The swirl number varied from 0.58 to 1.0 and air-to-liquid ratios from 15.8 to 35.6. A transition was observed in the liquid spray distribution for the 52 degree case, which unexpectedly produced twice as much signal than the 45 and 60 degree cases. The main cause of this increased signal may be due to instabilities in the flow when transitioning from low to high swirl states. The results from investigation of swirl number it was found that the spray pattern for is sensitive to swirl intensity. Two flow states were observed for a lower and higher swirl flow as well as a transition state that occurred with the lower swirl state. This work may aid in the specific inquiry of physical mechanisms relating to the effect of flow states on spray distribution. It is found that improved atomization and mixing performance are a result of increase in swirl number.

Les aérosols atmosphériques à l'Observatoire Pierre Auger : caractérisation et effet sur l'estimation de l'énergie des rayons cosmiques d'ultra-haute énergie.L'Observatoire Pierre Auger, situé dans la province de Mendoza en Argentine, réalise actuellement de grandes avancées dans la connaissance de la nature et de l'origine des rayons cosmiques d'ultra-haute énergie. Utilisant une technique de détection hybride, basée sur des détecteurs de surface et des télescopes de fluorescence, il fournit une large statistique, une bonne résolution en énergie, et un contrôle solide des incertitudes systématiques.L'un des principaux défis pour la technique de détection par fluorescence est la compréhension de l'atmosphère, utilisée comme un calorimètre géant. Afin de réduire autant que possible les incertitudes systématiques sur les mesures par fluorescence, la Collaboration Auger a développé un important programme de suivi de l'atmosphère. Le but de ce travail est d'améliorer notre compréhension sur les aérosols atmosphériques, ainsi que leur effet sur la propagation de la lumière de fluorescence.En utilisant un modèle de rétrotrajectographie des masses d'air, il a été montré que les nuits pauvres en aérosols ont des masses d'air provenant plus directement de l'Océan Pacifique. Pour la première fois, l'effet de la taille des aérosols sur la propagation de la lumière a été estimé. En effet, selon l'approche Ramsauer, les gros aérosols ont le plus grand effet sur la diffusion de la lumière. Ainsi, la dépendance en taille a été ajoutée aux paramétrisations décrivant la diffusion de la lumière et utilisée par la Collaboration Auger. Une surestimation systématique de l'énergie et du maximum de développement de la gerbe Xmax est observé.Enfin, une méthode basée sur les tirs laser très incliné produit par le laser central d'Auger a été développée pour estimer la taille des aérosols. Des tailles d'aérosols jusque là jamais détectées à l'Observatoire Pierre Auger peuvent à présent être contraintes. De premiers résultats montrent une population d'aérosols de grande taille en utilisant des tirs laser effectués dans le passé.

The analysis of light distribution at the surface of multi-layered bladder phantoms with different scattering and absorption properties showed that the changes in the optical properties lead to increase or decrease of the diffuse-reflected light spot area, detectable by a video camera. It was also determined, that the presented method is capable of detection of the photosensitizer accumulation, and can be applied for both (diffuse-reflected laser and fluorescence) studies simultaneously. The calculations for spherical and ?coated?-spherical tissue scatterers, based on the electromagnetic wave theory, allowed for obtaining optical parameters of three-layered biological phantoms and of bladder tissues at different states. These parameters served as inputs for Monte Carlo simulations, which provided us with matrices of diffuse-reflected light distributions. The study showed that the measurements of non-polarized back-scattered laser light can provide useful information on the tissue state

Actuellement les LEDs représentent une part de plus en plus importante de l'éclairage mondial. Cependant des recherches récentes ont permis de développer une solution encore plus économe en énergie que les LEDs en couplant optiquement des diodes laser à un luminophore. Les diodes laser fonctionnent sur un principe similaire aux LEDs mais permettent d'obtenir une puissance lumineuse plus élevée. A puissance égale, ceci permet d'utiliser moins de diodes laser et donc de grandement réduire la problématique due au réseau de sources lumineuses. Ces diodes laser sont aussi moins sujettes à l'emballement thermique que les LEDs. Cette solution comporte malgré tout quelques défauts : une diode laser demande une dissipation thermique accrue et produit un niveau de lumière bleue plus important en sortie qu'une LED. Le but de ce manuscrit est d'étudier la caractérisation et la modélisation d'un couplage diode laser/luminophore afin de pouvoir définir les axes d'amélioration de cette technologie ainsi que réaliser un modèle expérimentalCurrently, Light Emitting Diodes or LEDs are an increasingly important part of global lighting. However, recent research has made possible to develop an even more energy efficient solution than LEDs by optically coupling laser diodes to a remote phosphor. Laser diodes operate on a principle similar to LEDs but allow to obtain a higher luminous power. In fact for an equivalent luminous power, this allows to use less laser diodes and thus greatly reduce problems caused by using a network of light sources. Laser diodes are also less prone to thermal runaway than LEDs. However, this solution isn't perfect: a laser diode requires more heat dissipation and produces a higher level of blue light output than an LED. The aim of this manuscript is to study the characterization and the modeling of a diode laser / phosphor coupling in order to be able to define the axes of improvement of this technology as well as to realize an experimental model

L'amélioration de la visualisation in vivo des lésions précancéreuse (dysplasies) du col utérin est essentielle pour mieux identifier les zones à biopsier et pour optimiser la définition des limites d'exérèse chirurgicale. Dans ce but nous étudions une nouvelle technique d'imagerie polarimétrique en rétrodiffusion, que nous avons mise en oeuvre sur des échantillons ex vivo dans des configurations expérimentales variées afin d'optimiser le diagnostic in vivo. Comme cette optimisation passe par la compréhension des contrastes polarimétriques observés, nous avons réalisé de nombreuses simulations de la propagation de lumière polarisée dans des structures multicouche représentatives des tissus. Ces structures comprennent typiquement une couche comportant des diffuseurs dans une matrice homogène et représentant l'épithélium ou le tissu conjonctif superficiel, et un substrat lambertien totalement dépolarisant pour les couches plus profondes. Ces simulations ont été effectuées au moyen d'un code Monte Carlo que nous avons adapté à notre problématique. Nous avons ainsi montré que la contribution des noyaux cellulaires est très faible en rétrodiffusion. Pour le tissu conjonctif, les fibres de collagène, modélisées par des diffuseurs sphériques de 200 nm de rayon, donnent une contribution plus importante que les noyaux, mais ne reproduisent pas la réponse polarimétrique de type Rayleigh observée dans tous les tissus étudiés, qu'ils soient sains ou pathologiques. En revanche, l'inclusion de diffuseurs de taille nettement inférieure à la longueur d'onde, modélisés par des sphères de 50 nm, permet de reproduire cette réponse de manière très stable. Ces diffuseurs correspondent a priori aux protéines intracellulaires. Dans le cadre de ce modèle, les contrastes observés entre tissus sains et cancéreux s'expliquent essentiellement par une variation de la concentration de ces petits diffuseurs. Ce résultat, encore préliminaire, suggère que l'imagerie polarimétrique en rétrodiffusion peut être sensible non seulement à la morphologie, mais également à l'état physiologique du tissu, ce qui peut s'avérer important pour la détection sélective des dysplasies.

Il particolato atmosferico è uno degli inquinanti atmosferici principali in quanto esercita effetti importanti su clima, tempo meteorologico, visibilità, salute umana, ambiente e beni culturali. Nonostante i numerosi studi, la conoscenza dei processi fisici che lo governano risulta ancora limitata. L'obiettivo della presente tesi è stato quello di analizzare le distribuzioni dimensionali di particelle di aerosol raccolte tramite due contatori ottici di particelle nel periodo Gennaio-Febbraio 2018 in due diverse aree urbane (street canyons) di Bologna, al fine di confrontarne l'andamento temporale e di analizzare l'importanza dei processi di rimozione dall'atmosfera. Lo studio si colloca all'interno del progetto H2020 `iSCAPE' (Improving
the Smart Control of Air Pollution in Europe", GA n. 689954), avente come oggetto il controllo della qualità dell'aria tramite lo sviluppo di tecniche innovative di controllo sostenibile e passivo. Dopo aver introdotto i concetti generali, si passa a descrivere l'area di studio ed infine i dati raccolti. Questi ultimi sono stati analizzati sviluppando appositi codici MatLab per la visualizzazione grafica, nonchè per effettuare calcoli sulle distribuzioni ottenute. I risultati mostrano che entrambi i siti sono caratterizzati da fluttuazioni rapide del numero di particelle, con andamenti medi simili, soprattutto per quanto riguarda le particelle più piccole.
Il confronto tra i due siti in varie condizioni meteorologiche (nebbia, cielo sereno, pioggia e neve) ha messo in evidenza i valori particolarmente elevati nelle giornate di nebbia e l'efficacia della rimozione umida tramite precipitazioni, soprattutto di quelle nevose, nella diminuzione delle concentrazioni di particelle di aerosol.

The calculations for spherical and ?coated?-spherical tissue scatterers, based on the electromagnetic wave theory, allowed for obtaining optical parameters of three-layered biological phantoms and of bladder tissues at different states. These parameters served as inputs for Monte Carlo simulations, which provided us with matrices of diffuse-reflected light distributions. The study showed that the measurements of non-polarized back-scattered laser light can provide useful information on the tissue state

The living body tissues consist of cells which dimensions are bigger than a wavelength of visible light. Therefore a Mie scattering of reflected of backscaterred light occurs and different polarization states arise. The changes of polarization state due to the multiple scattering of light in the biological cellular tissues allow measure the aging of biological tissue. The reflected or backscattered polarized laser light exhibits multiple scattering on the sample surface and in its subsurface area.

Resumo: Desde 1908, quando Mie apresentou expressões analíticas para os campos espalhados por uma partícula esférica sob incidência de uma onda eletromagnética plana, generalizações para esta expansão têm se mostrado incompletas. Isto se deve à presença de certos termos com dependência radial nos coe cientes de forma do feixe quando expandido em termos de funções de onda esféricas vetoriais. Aqui mostramos pela primeira como cancelar estes termos, permitindo expressões analíticas para os coe cientes para um campo eletromagnético completamente arbitrário. Damos tambem vários exemplos deste novo método, que também é muito apropriado para cálculos numéricos. Obtemos deste modo, expressões analíticas para feixes de Bessel e para os modos de guias de onda metálicos retangulares e cilíndricos. Estes resultados são extremamente relevantes para o incremento na velocidade de cálculo das forças de radiação atuando sobre uma partícula esférica, colocada em um campo eletromagnético arbitrário, com por exemplo, em pinças ópticas
Abstract: Since 1908, when Mie reported analytical expressions for the elds scattered by a spherical particle upon incidence of an electromagnetic plane-wave, generalizing his analysis to the case of an arbitrary incident wave has proved elusive. This is due to the presence of certain radially-dependent terms in the equation for the beam-shape coecients of the expansion of the electromagnetic elds in terms of vector spherical wave functions. Here we show for the rst time how these terms can be canceled out, allowing analytical expressions for the beam shape coecients to be found for a completely arbitrary incident eld. We give several examples of how this new method, which is well suited to numerical calculation, can be used. Analytical expressions are found for Bessel beams and the modes of rectangular and cylindrical metallic waveguides. The results are highly relevant for speeding up calculation of the radiation forces acting on spherical particles placed in an arbitrary electromagnetic eld, such as in optical tweezers

Statistique de polarisation et effet faraday en diffusion multiple de la lumiere. L'analyse traditionnelle de la propagation de la lumiere en milieu aleatoire suppose que les ondes sont des champs scalaires et que les diffuseurs sont ponctuels. Nous avons voulu etudier des situations plus realistes. La nature vectorielle du champ electromagnetique et l'anisotropie de diffusion sont explicitement prises en compte par la theorie de mie. Pour realiser cet objectif, nous avons ecrit et mis au point un code de simulation numerique utilisant l'algorithme de monte carlo. Nous nous sommes interesses tout d'abord aux mecanismes de depolarisation de la lumiere en regime de diffusion multiple. Puis nous faisons une etude approfondie de la pertinence des differentes approches du probleme de la diffusion multiple (portant principalement sur l'equation de boltzmann et la methode de monte carlo). Finalement nous etudions analytiquement et numeriquement l'effet faraday en diffusion multiple. Cet effet fait tourner les etats de polarisation entre deux collisions successives brisant la symetrie par reversement du temps. Les interferences de phase qui donnent lieu au cone de retrodiffusion peuvent ainsi etre controlees par l'application d'un champ magnetique

This thesis deals with the dark-field imaging and the optical spectroscopy of optically trapped plasmonic nanoparticles. The optical trapping and the characterization of a single particle or multiple nanoparticles as well are demonstrated. The number of the optically trapped particles can be estimated from the dark-field scattering intensity. Experiments show the presence of the interparticle coupling among trapped metallic nanoparticles which has not been observed in case of dielectric particles. The scattering spectra of the plasmonic nanoparticles were compared with theoretical models based on the Mie theory and the Discrete dipole approximation.

Optical trapping of metal nanoparticles investigates phenomena at the interface of plasmonics and optical micromanipulation. This thesis combines ideas of optical properties of metals originating from solid state physics with force mechanism resulting from optical trapping. We explore the influence of the particle plasmon resonance of gold and silver nanospheres on their trapping properties. We aspire to predict the force mechanisms of resonant metal particles with sizes in the Mie regime, beyond the Rayleigh limit. Optical trapping of metal nanoparticles is still considered difficult, yet it provides an excellent tool to investigate their plasmonic properties away from any interface and offers opportunities to investigate interaction processes between light and nanoparticles. Due to their intrinsic plasmon resonance, metal nanoparticles show intriguing optical responses upon interaction with laser light. These differ greatly from the well-known bulk properties of the same material. A given metal nanoparticle may either be attracted or repelled by laser light, only depending on the wavelength of the latter. The optical forces acting on the particle depend directly on its polarisability and scattering cross section. These parameters vary drastically around the plasmon resonance and thus not only change the magnitude but also the direction and entire nature of the acting forces. We distinguish between red-detuned and blue-detuned trapping, that is using a trapping wavelength shorter or longer than the plasmon resonance of the particle. So far optical trapping of metal nanoparticles has focussed on a wavelength regime far from the particle’s resonance in the infrared. We experiment with laser wavelengths close to the plasmon resonance and expand the knowledge of metal nanoparticle trapping available to date. Existing theoretical models are put to the test when we compare these with our real experimental situations.
